McLaren promises to redefine the rules of Grand Touring when it releases its own interpretation of the #grandtourer in just a few months. The announcement was made by CEO, Mike Flewitt, at the company’s press presentation during the 89 th International Geneva Motor Show.

“The fourth #Mclaren to be introduced under the Track25 business plan will be our interpretation of the #grandtourer. It will be a car that combines competition levels of performance with continent-crossing capability, wrapped in a beautiful lightweight body. It’s a car that has been designed for distance and one that will also provide the comfort and space expected of a #grandtourer. But with a level of agility never experienced before in this segment. In addition, it will be the lightest of Grand Tourers and by also having the best power-to-weight ratio, I promise it will be one of the quickest. In addition, it will be the only #grandtourer to share its DNA with the 250mph #Mclaren Speedtail.” Mike Flewitt, CEO, #Mclaren #automotive.

Neither the name of the car nor its final design were revealed. But an image of the #Mclaren of Grand Tourers shown in a distinctive camouflage has been issued. Mike did confirm that it will be a sleek, beautiful and boldly elegant car, one keeping to the #Mclaren philosophy of every design detail being present for a reason. The interior will feel spacious, uncluttered and modern with only authentic, high quality materials employed. He also promised that the #Mclaren of Grand Tourers will be the most usable mid-engined car yet.

Mike went on to say that the #Mclaren of Grand Tourers will not form part of any of the company’s existing model Series and will be a unique, tailored model. Its name and more information are set to be released over the coming months.
